Abstract
A communication terminal comprising: a radio interface and a WLAN communication module configured to: generate and send an association request; receive an association response; and establish IP connectivity. The communication terminal also comprises a service selection module configured to select a computer-implemented service to be accessed; and a service execution control module configured to execute software application code implementing the selected computer-implemented service. The WLAN communication module is further configured to: in response to receiving a service selection command from the service selection module, generate an association request comprising a service identifier which identifies the selected service; parse the association response received through the radio interface to detect a link carried in the association response, wherein the link points to a network address of an application server suitable for delivering application data corresponding to the selected computer-implemented service; and initiate data communication with the network address for downloading application data.
